Just to throw my opinion in here....
I have heard Release as an opener on a boot or two but having Animal as the opener would be MEGA-AWESOME. That song drops on you like a ninja with sword drawn.

I agree with Release. It's almost like I'm being released from my normal life and helped by the band into a much better place for the following several hours.Sometimes I glance at everyone around me, all of us with hands thrust in the air , and think this is as physically and mentally close to a religious, small r, experience as I'm ever going to be. It definitely sets the table for the 2-1/2 hours of exhiliration that follows .
